Kent State's College of Business Named Outstanding by Princeton Review

KENT, OH - Kent State University’s College of Business Administration is once again among the most outstanding business schools, according to the Princeton Review’s Best 294 Business Schools: 2017 Edition.

The Princeton Review is well-known for its college rankings in dozens of categories, based on how students rate their schools. The survey asks business school students about their school’s academics, student body and campus life, as well as about themselves and their career plans.

“Kent State University’s College of Business Administration offers academically outstanding degrees,” said Robert Franek, senior vice president and publisher of the Princeton Review. “The program offerings vary considerably among the schools we selected for this guide, and we salute and highlight those distinctions in our profiles.”

The Princeton Review 2016 edition described Kent State’s College of Business Administration as a place where “young professionals can jumpstart their careers through enjoyable and enlightening academic curriculum, catering to students at every stage of life.”

“Being recognized by the Princeton Review is a testament to the College of Business Administration’s high-quality business programs and faculty who produce cutting-edge research in their fields,” said Deborah F. Spake, Ph.D., dean of Kent State’s College of Business Administration. “The college strives to provide a high-quality education to prepare students for successful business careers.”

The Princeton Review does not rank business schools in the book on a single hierarchical list from one to 295, or name one business school best overall. Instead, the book has 11 lists of the top 10 business schools in various categories. Ten lists are based at least in part on the Princeton Review’s surveys of 20,300 students attending the 295 business schools profiled in the book. One ranking is based on school-reported data.
